Heck, we've got HAMB members selling parts that were copied directly from parts made by other HAMB members.
So you're wanting to hem the edge? [IMG] You won't want to use a brake. Think of it as a door skin. Tip it to start the flange,...
Why? I’d just leave it as is; increasing just the diameter of the tank pickup isn’t going to be of any benefit.
Halibrands will often have tag(s) cast into them indicating the size, model number, and other such identifying information. Here's an example:...
Face value it looks like a scam. Every single photo has a different sort of background in it. People with tons of neat stuff typically don't sell...
The B cars with the SBC have 700R4. The ones with an Old 307 have a 200-4R. I would assume the D cars followed suit since they're essentially...
He has in another thread. https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/lincoln-brakes-on-a-model-a.1313542/
The rear backing plates are the same across all the years of Lincolns; the depth of the fronts are what varied. Previous posts have seemed to...
Are you trying to build a 1970s styled car or something from another era? The '35 style wires are not 8" wide. Are you planning on cutting them...
The Boling Bros (formerly MT) cast drums mount to the outside of the hub, like the '40 Ford, which is why they require the "'40 Ford style" hubs...
You are measuring from the rear surface of the drum, which does not affect track width. The only measurement that matters is location of the drum...
The measurement is the same between Lincoln and 40 brakes. They use the same hub. If you're using cast drums you may "lose" another 1/16" due to...
That's just some home made or hardware store hinge. I wouldn't worry about its position as you'll need to replace it. TBH, without seeing a...
@‘28 RPUSend your stock axle out to be dropped by someone such as Okie Joe or "He that shall not be named on this forum". That will narrow up the...
Anywhere from 2-8". This is not really a dimension you need to worry about unless your spring is quite flat, and it's going to vary based on how...
I would suggest also posting this question (with the measurements) on Ford Barn since it looks like you've hit a dead end here.
I think you have two Ford garnishes (the rear quarter windows) and three from other make(s) or (slight maybe) European Ford. The front windows...
Are you calling industrial (hard chrome) platers or ones that specialize in cosmetic (decorative chrome) plating? Since the former are after the...
Just because it was shown in a photo in a magazine doesn't mean it's correct. The steel pin will have a different hardness and wear differently...
Ironically, Charlie sells the faux-97s.
Ooof! The commercial bars are the hardest to find, followed by unaltered B bars, then the V8 bars.
Just send an invoice through PayPal. Way easier and you won't run into any "sent to the wrong account" nonsense. This is a two-factor...
Offering lower shafts for the old Halibrand 101, 201, and 301 quickchanges would be a potential market opportunity for Winters.
All Corvettes have used hollow wall tubing, including the modern ones that have a torque tube mounted transaxle. Perhaps you're thinking of the...
Moser makes axles from 1541H, 4140, 4340 and some other alloy steels depending upon application.
Ditch the blocks. Tweak the shackles and reverse the main spring eyes. Evaluate from there if it needs something more to get it down to where it...
The award isn't "America's Most Technically Perfect Roadster", though. The award is "America's Most Beautiful Roadster". Beauty is a subjective...
Daily driver and needs to stay all Ford? I'd go with a 351W simply because Ford used it for 31 years. You could walk in to any auto parts store...
It will be difficult if the car is completely assembled, painted, and has an interior. If there is no interior, the sides of the Brookville...
Separate names with a comma.
